Eh 13 seems to be the standard. But then if the show’s a hit then a back 9 raising it up to 22 or at least second season of 22 does seem to still be a thing for broadcast TV at least. But STA really would have been helped by another 3 episodes.
No one in any Star Trek series is what I would consider A-list so I’m pretty sure all of them would be happy to do a 22 episode season.
I didn’t know that the 10 episodes limit was a Paramount rule, really I miss the 22 episodes season. That length forces the showrunners to work harder. Some the best TNG episodes are bottle episodes or limited cast episodes. Lock everyone in a room and you might get another ‘Measure of a Man’ or if whole cast is run down and shooting catch up scenes focus on the bit players and you can get another ‘Lower Decks’ (the episode not the series). If there were only 13 episodes a season on TNG there wouldn’t have been time enough to grow Gordie as a character or create O’Brian or … the list is too long.
_I still feel, based on how much difference an extra two episodes per season makes to a low budget show like The Ark, that SFA would be stronger and better able to serve its large cast with 12 episode seasons.
I hope we get more on SAM’s development and integration of her two memories in season two._
I’ve always been against the modern short season system. SFA is a classic example in my mind. SFA really needed another couple of episodes to breathe. I’d have been quite happy to have a few less SFX heavy episodes to have just more episodes.
Fuck Man, not just in documentation, in my whole life. I hope it’s because I’ve become better but I know there’s stuff in my past I’m fucking embarrassed about. And I know there are people I’ve hurt. But today I’m trying to be better.
So write some fucking documentation motherfucker be better this time.
I love this one because it looks like Rikers got Bohemian Rhapsody blasting over the sound system and everyone’s just headbanging along.
Do you not understand how dramatic storytelling works? Did you stop reading To Kill a Mockingbird because it’s racist to have an innocent black man accused of murder?
In some states in the US yes.
I’m a huge fan of Apollo I mean Voyager. I kid … I kid … Voyager is an awesome app and my daily drive for Lemmy. Pretty easy to use and not hard to look at either, but you really do need to use Dark Mode.
looking at the x-ray - Either this guy’s got shell up his ass or his colon is still fighting World War I.
I hadn’t really seen that point of view before but I really like it. Shit has sucked for a while maybe some stories about how cool fixing it would be are what I need.
Welcome back! I enjoyed both these episodes. I don’t like this time period, the post burn Federation. The rebuilding could interesting but it’s not really aspirational and I really could use some aspirational content in my life, vaguely waves at every thing.
What no love for Commodore OS
It’s my new favourite Linux
Tree-fiddy came so close to making the list I think but it feels right that it didn’t.
Ah yes it’s not perfect so lets burn it all the fuck down! If you read the article you’ll see that GTFO offers a bunch of service for people, but you don’t need them to apply for a DAFT visa at all. But yes moving to another country costs money, hell moving across the city cost money. That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t look at the idea. The ship is on fire, you might need to get a raft.
Colin Powell couldn’t even pull that shit off.
You kind of understand where he was coming from.
You know you’re right about Holly Hunter, she’s so good as Ake I flat out forgot she’s Holly Fuckin Hunter my bad there. But as much as I love Tig, and do love Tig Notaro, (Jet Reno is my favourite engineer since O’Brian) she’s B or C level celebrity and she’s a supporting character., she’d have time to do Zootopia 3 even if they had 22.
But you’re right very few shows do longer seasons for a lot of reasons. I just think that it’s trade off I’m not in favour of. I miss how longer seasons made shows try more interesting things, and gave the Arcs time to breathe. The Dominion arc in DS9 felt epic in part because it was so long.
